Quest Environment







Description of the space

The space I am in is a wooden dome in the middle of a mountain valley. The ceiling seems very high. The atmosphere is subdued with warm lights. The room is generous, it is like a living room. There is a library, a fireplace and sofas. The furniture is arranged around the edges of the dome. In the centre, the area is free, with a large carpet on the wooden floor. In front of me, large triangular windows offer a view of the moonlit night landscape of the valley. Above me, a zenithal opening allows me to look at the stars.



Athmosphere

Sitting in the centre of the dome, I appreciate the subdued light of the living room which protects me from the cold of the mountain outside. The quietness of the space makes me want to rest. The parquet floor brings a warm touch to the space. To my right, I can see the fireplace, I imagine the smell of the wood fire. The atmosphere is calm and favourable to contemplation. I walk towards the bay windows. From here I can admire the landscape of the valley immersed in the night. Time seems to have stopped. Then I go back to sit on the carpet, I raise my head to discover the stars.
